Save Trees. Trees Save. Bangalore.




I THINK that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
  
A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed
Against the sweet earth's flowing breast;
  
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
  
A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
  
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
  
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
~Joyce Kilmer. 1886–1918

Nature intended it to be this way. Only if man would let it be too...

Why does the universe offer me such beauty and creativity and weave a blanket of passion and love around me, and then force me to look away from it all and into the blinding gore called the power point? Go Mee conquer the world for us too!! While we lick the grime off the power points! sigh...

Really, it doesn't take much to recognize how blessed we are by Nature. Yet we crave for holidays, breaks, shores far away...when magic is right here, to reach out and touch!! Lovely pics M!

I know many who hanker to buy an easel, brushes in multiple sizes and multi tubs of paint! Wish they would read/see this post:DDD

Great pictures.
Indeed, save Bangalore... save India... save the World!
Unfortunately, I don't think we will realize the damage we've done until it's too late...

HI Nice photos. we have planted about 1000 young tress in Jalahalli/Yeshwanthpur area and require volunteers to look after/nurture these tree saplings till they can survive. In Apr due to a forest fire we lost about 300 of these due to dry wild grass. There is a requirement of watering also and ample water is available.
